Valuation holds this up; Optionality is the soft spot.

The price needs 10.0% growth a year for ten years. The AI thinks 12.0% is achievable, at a 11.0% margin.

Amkor looks fairly valued once you adjust for heavy growth spending that is building AI-relevant capacity. Its Owner Earnings power is higher than the low FCF suggests, and the Arizona/TSMC/NVIDIA moves position it for a multi-year mix shift that could lift margins and sustain double-digit growth. The main risk is execution on that pivot in a competitive, cyclical industry.
